Im a little suspicious about the picture, but if it is true i have claims to a tentacle!

You tried.

Bloody Windows 8

Windows 8 is Satan himself.

Words cannot describe the rage the builds up within me when i have to use a Windows 8 machine.

I feel your pain and then multiply it by rage!

I agree, x 6.02x10^24. My new laptop has it and I can't stand it!

Also, that snopes debunk of the internet rumor was hilarious. Will be forwarding it around the office tomorrow!

Windows 8 works really well on my phone and laptop, it's not an excuse for a terrible thread.

This is a lie.

Windows 8 does not work "really well" period.

I've seen enough hentai to know where this thread is going...

Perhaps you're confusing Windows 8 with Vista?

No, because we're discussing OS's that suck. And while Vista had it's flaws, Windows 8 just flat out sucks.

The simple fact that they removed the calculator tool is all we need to verify this. We don't even need all of the other data.

And yes, removing calculator tool, seriously?

Ok, I can understand someone not liking the changes that windows 8 made (the tiled home screen are useless on pc's) but for anyone to say that Vista was a viable OS is unadulterated madness.

Besides, windows 8 still has a calculator tool in both the PC and phone forms.

I'm sorry but you are wrong and you are not winning this discussion, Windows 8 has been universally panned and follows the age old microsoft rythm of one good OS every 2 releases. Vista was bad, no two ways about it, but at least it didn't try to turn your PC into a tablet made of gak. Hell, Windows 8 had worse hardware support then Vista on release, now that says a lot.

Anyway, back to the tentacles.

Actually recently read up on some of the origins for the whole tentacle porn thing in japan. It was their way of bypassing censoring since Japan has these weird law where everything that isn't actual male on female intercourse is totally fine. Japan has major penis fear.(ENVY)

Sorry to re-derail the thread, but on the subject of Vista


And In actual 'legitimite' news stories, this appeared yesterday:
Giant Jellyfish found in Australia

Although, the pic makes it look like someones just poured a large amount of custard onto a pebbly beach...

I don't think this thread even had rails in the first place!

BTW: there are several known forms of giant squid and jellyfish, by measurements, the only large enough to eat a collosul squid is the sperm whale.
And my personal opinion: in the deepest unexplored regions of the ocean, pressure is massive, anything no small, or not big, enough is crushed by its own weight, if we assume that collosul squid are the general size range for these (as would be suggested by giant jellyfish) there may well be many spaces of "giant" animals down there, whO's to say the myth of sea serpents wasnt created when seismic activity drove one such creature to the surface ( most likely in q "bubble" of deep water (like a goldfish bag) technicLly, it would explode frOm the lack of pressure, but if it's scales are light enough it wouldnt. Snake comes up, eats a sailer or fifty, goes back down. Survivors tell stories of q giant snake monster.
/stupid theorie.

I, for one, love the idea of giant sea creatures living in the deep places no human could safely go (and return from). Makes our world just that much more interesting.

Actually, among deep-sea biologists there is a big problem of getting this up to the surface alive due to pressure issues (things that live at extreme pressures tend to be well adapted to do so, and large sudden changes in pressure tend to kill them)

If you want to bring it back up alive, you essentially need to take a pressurised aquarium with you on the way down, shove a few fish in, then rise back up.

Windows 8 is terrible, and i would rather have 7 and download the calculator program. So far, my laptop has:
Lost its system speed
been cluttered with redundant update files around 11 times
Randomly booted itself during the night, from being shutdown, booted, scanned the disk in the dvd drive (Terminator-the Sarah Connor Chronicles, disk 2 season one) then shut down again. That bit was a little weird.
Crashed Word many times
Logged me out of Minecraft once
Started auto-reverting to power saver mode every time i log in.
Pissed me off many times.
Tried repeatedly to convert me to 8.1-despite the fact it would mean me losing my Classic Shell.
Etc

I want to backdate to windows 7.

Oh, and Windows Vista was terrible. The whole thing was just.... Nope.

How about '95 .

Perhaps I'm just incredibly lucky then, I have 7 on my desktop and 8 on my laptop as well as my phone.

Personally I quite liked '95 when because it was the first OS I saw, although it was pretty old then. My favorite OS is either 7 or XP. I still have a 12 year old PC with XP.
